Chapter 226 Mutual Heart-Piercing Confessions

—Who is watching them?

Jiang Xingni pursed her lips.

Suddenly, a guess formed in my mind.

Jiang Xingni didn't quite remember what Jiang Qishi's research direction was.

Jiang Qishi's research was more confidential than Ji Hanzhang's.

However, Jiang Qishi's name is not in the memories of ordinary people.

They only remembered Ji Hanzhang as a genius researcher, and Jiang Qishi as nothing more than her husband.

As for Jiang Qishi's research direction and the truth he was seeking, not many people knew.

Even Shan Qing and the others came here mostly for Ji Hanzhang.

Instead of Jiang Qishi.

But looking at the line of words in front of him, Jiang Xingni suddenly had a premonition.

If Jiang Qishi's research direction is similar to Jiang Xingni's imagination—then Jiang Xingni can guess why Jiang Qishi didn't leave his name.

Moreover, being able to uncover the truth of the entire world to this extent, Jiang Qishi, like Jiang Xingni's mother, is a truly deserving genius.

However, his research will never be recognized by others, nor will it allow Jiang Qishi to leave any trace in human history.

If they hadn't died, if they had continued on the path their lives were meant to take.

Ji Hanzhang will have a place in history because of her research; her name will occupy a corner in the history books, and ordinary people will still sing her name many years later.

When Jiang Qi arrives, there will be nothing.

If one insists on finding a difference between the two, one can only say that Jiang Qishi's contributions benefited the present generation, while Ji Hanzhang's benefits will last for generations.

Jiang Xingni had no interest in using his parents' achievements to determine their social status or merits, or in the end, who was superior or who had married above their station.

She raised her head and her gaze fell on Shan Qing across the way.

As soon as Jiang Xingni put down the research materials on Ji Hanzhang, Shan Qing naturally moved closer and grabbed the materials.

Jiang Xingnian's research materials on Jiang Qishi were not very popular.

She couldn't help but chuckle to herself.

Regardless of who has more merit or who has a higher IQ, they are ultimately just ordinary people, ordinary people who will die after their hearts are removed.

They cannot be brought back to life, they have no immortal body, and they have no self-healing ability.

Anyway, they're both dead now.

No matter what the future holds, there will be no place for the two of them.

Jiang Xingni thought calmly to himself.

They were already skeletons six feet below the ground—Jiang Xingni even personally cremated both of them and placed their ashes into that small urn. What else is there to discuss?

Shan Qing didn't notice that Jiang Xingni was still holding the research materials in his hand, his eyes fixed on Ji Hanzhang's research materials.

While rapidly scanning the text on the paper, she reached out and touched the glasses on her mask, scanning all the text and uploading it to the storage device attached to the equipment.

She knew she had made the right decision to come.

If no one comes, it's uncertain when the 49th Bureau will be willing to send someone to inspect the lower city area, and it's unknown how many of those people will be willing to make a special trip for Ji Hanzhang.

Alternatively, they could wait until Jiang Xingni makes contact with Bureau 49 before letting her know her parents' true identities, and then voluntarily hand over the information to Bureau 49.

Regardless of the possibility, it doesn't seem like the chances of it happening are very slim.

Shanqing did not have any expectations for these developments.

"Did Jiang Xingni know that you put her parents' belongings here and even showed them to us?" On the other side, Shan Yu didn't join in the fun. Instead, he stood in a corner, arms crossed, leaning against the wall, staring at Jiang Xingni with cold and indifferent eyes.

—They didn't know that this relic was actually hidden by Jiang Xingni himself.

Jiang Xing narrowed his eyes, but following their line of thought, it wasn't surprising that they came to such a conclusion.

The man in black understands these things; he knows the true identities of Jiang Qishi and Ji Hanzhang; and he was able to accurately retrieve the information after so many years.

If it was something Jiang Xingni had hidden, it's impossible that it hadn't changed location over the years. But the man in black was so precise that he retrieved the data without even hesitating.

No matter how Shan Yu thought about it, he couldn't believe that Jiang Xingni and the man in black were so close that Jiang Xingni would tell the man in black every time they changed positions.

After much thought, there's only one possibility left.

The information itself was hidden by the man in black, and Jiang Xingni knew nothing about it. He didn't know that his parents' belongings had been stolen, nor did he know his parents' true identities. He was just a victim.

After Jiang Xingni deduced their thoughts, he naturally went along with it.

She didn't deny it—anyway, the further away Jiang Xingni was from her current identity, the better; ideally, they would have no connection whatsoever except that they were both women.

"Now you've finally developed a belated sense of morality?" Jiang Xingni sneered. "When you were preparing to rummage through Jiang Qishi's house to find research materials, why didn't you consider Jiang Xingni's feelings?"

"Giving these things to you directly might reassure Jiang Xingni more, right?"

"Anyway, even without me, you would have turned the whole house upside down, and you might not have found these documents in the end." Her voice was soft, but her tone was sarcastic and harsh.

Yamasumi sneered, "So, according to your logic, we should thank you for preventing the house from being ransacked?"

Jiang Xingni raised an eyebrow: "If you insist on expressing your gratitude, I certainly don't mind."

She chuckled—a clear, light, and amused sound that came from Jiang Xingni's voice and rang in their ears.

"But I also want to ask..." Jiang Xingni said slowly. "Is research from ten years ago still useful to you now? Have you been completely useless these past ten years?"

Anyway, it's all about hurting each other deeply.

Jiang Xingni rarely had the chance to be so sarcastic and cynical towards others.

Jiang Xingni was afraid that his popularity would plummet to the bottom by mocking the main characters, and he was also afraid that his remarks would be too extreme and lead to his account being banned.

Now she has a great opportunity to not only unleash her true nature but also to have no one think it's wrong.

Even if she breaks out later, people will only think that she was just creating a persona at this point.
